Order of Activities:

  1. Pop a Joke

  2. Word Play

  3. Watch Video

  4. Games

Watch and Talk About:

  1. How is each job in the video an example of being a responsible citizen in the community?

  2. What are some other jobs that are responsible for the good of our community (common good)?

  3. How is a person (a citizen) you know working for the common good?

  4. How do your parents learn (stay informed) about our community?

Extension:

How do you want to work for the common good now or when you are older? Draw a picture of a job you would like to do and show your parents and send a photo of it to your teacher.

Or, create a costume using things from around the house (like paper and tape) and dress up to show a job you can do to be an active citizen.
